Well, all I read is people keep argue from one side only. Even Lord Thane doesn't put himself in players shoes. So I want to talk from my side too. As round winner province, we always had to fight against three times our number of players. Even at the test round it was like that. But we use our game experience and game mechanics for save our lands and armys for win the game. We will develop our own tactics and spend many many hours for find the best options. Since when using a unique strategy at a strategy game require a punishment? You can check our province players one by one, we all were playing the test rounds with same names too and you know non of them is a multi at all. What makes you think some of us multi? I don't get it.
We asked to you many times about castle passing even before the round starts, and you confirm there is not a problem about it. We want to pass our castles to eachother instead of our enemys, nothing wrong with that you confirm that before. But somehow you trying to change the game to 1vs1 fights instead of province game. Which is no point to play for us while we have triple size enemy groups. Without strategy, it's just a game like farmwille, build mill/mine, build armory with that, build army with that, and all this steps take 1-2 days. Then lost all in 1 second, then start again from zero.
